Welcome to the Lost Easter Special! Easter (On Sunday Sunday Sunday!) is the holiest time of the Catholic year, and to celebrate, we invited a group of our favourite podcasters to participate in an actual-play Easter-themed D&D adventure. Join the disciples of Oily Josh as they attempt to rob the Remoran Empire. To do so, they will need to convince the magistrate, Pontius Pilates, to sentence them to death!
